2018 EPSCoR jurisdictions

The NSF Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (NSF EPSCoR) is a nationwide research and education program administered by the National Science Foundation. The mission of NSF EPSCoR is to help the NSF reach its goal "to strengthen research and education in science and engineering throughout the United States and to avoid undue concentration of such research and education." States and territories which in recent years have received less than 0.75% of the NSF's total national funding are eligible for EPSCoR funding. In 2018 26 states and territories meet this criteria.
